To the northeast, the newly incorporated city of Pasadena showcased its first Tournament of Roses Parade on January 1st. It was eight days later that a young Irish priest, Father Patrick Harnett from St. John Vibiana Cathedral in Los Angeles, celebrated the first Mass in the city known then by its Indian name of “Crown of the Valley” and today as the “Crown City.” That very first Mass, held in the Los Angeles House hotel located at Fair Oaks Avenue and Colorado Street, inaugurated what would become an historic Catholic presence in this new city of Pasadena, founded the same year as the establishment of St. Andrew Church, 1886. LIBRARY ART EXHIBIT An exhibit highlighting our 125th Anniversary and related activities is being planned for the Pasadena Central Library in April. In order to personalize the exhibit, the Anniversary Committee is asking parishioners to lend any antique heirlooms or photos that were used in St Andrew Church ceremonies over the years. These could include (but not limited to) vintage baptismal gowns, bridal veils, prayer books, and, of course, photos. We would also love to have items used in any typical ethnic ceremonies to help us celebrate our diverse parish community. Your items would be displayed under lock and key in the closed exhibit cases in the Library for the 30 days of the exhibit and would be returned in a timely manner. This is a beautiful way to actively participate in sharing our Anniversary activities with the Pasadena community. Please contact the Pastoral Center at (626) 792-4183 to arrange for a pick up. 2 THIRD SUNDAY OF LENT MARCH 27, 2011 Together in Mission 2011 UPDATE Thank you very much for your generous support with the 2011 Annual Appeal “Together in Mission”.

ANDREW SCHOOL NEWS ♦ 4 DID YOU KNOW? You can help create a safer environment for children by leaving your parish or community environment safer each day than when you started. This could be as simple as training yourself to do a more effective job of keeping your eye on those around you when they interact with children. It sounds overly simple, but most of us don’t really do it, and it can be an easy habit to develop. It just takes persistence and a way to measure your success. For example, in order to make yourself “notice” those who are interacting with children, you could try counting the number of children you see each day interacting with non-parental adults. Okay… so this would be a little unrealistic for a schoolteacher, but for the rest of us, it could be a very big learning experience. To learn more about parish efforts to create safe environments for our children, please contact the parish office. For additional guidance, please call the Assistance Ministry at (213) 637-7650 or Carol Clark of Saint Andrew Parish at (626) 7924183, Ext. 109. ST.

Al noreste, la nueva ciudad incorporada de Pasadena lucia su primer desfile del Torneo de las Rosas el primero de enero. Ocho días después un joven sacerdote, padre Patrick Harnet de la catedral de san Juan Vibiana de Los Angeles, celebro su primer Misa que en aquel entonces se conocía como la “corona del valle” y ahora es la “ciudad corona”. Esa primera Misa fue celebrada en el hotel Los Angeles House, localizado en las calles Fair Oaks y Colorado, inauguró lo que se convirtiera en una presencia histórica católica en la nueva ciudad de Pasadena, fundada el miso año que la parroquia de San Andrés, 1886. 8 Para Vivir Mejor Nuestra Eucaristía ♦ La Misa es un momento en que nos reunimos para escuchar a Dios, en el que El no habla y aprendemos de su palabra; por lo tanto, evita contestar el celular ¡NO HAY NADIE MAS IMPORANTE QUE DIOS! ♦ No entres a la Casa de Dios masticando chicle o con comida o bebida en las manos. ♦ No olvides que la Misa termina DESPUES de que el sacerdote entra en la Sacristía. ¿SABE USTED? Usted puede ayudar a crear un ambiente mas seguro para los niños en su parroquia y comunidad al mejorar cada día esa seguridad. Esto puede ser tan simple como entrenarse para hacer un trabajo más efectivo manteniendo “un ojo” en los que le rodean cuando interactúan con niños. Esto suena demasiado simple, pero la mayoría de nosotros en realidad no lo hacemos, y puede ser un hábito fácil a desarrollar. Esto sólo requiere persistencia y una forma de medir sus logros. Por ejemplo, para que usted “se de cuenta” de los que interactúan con niños, podría tratar de contar el número de niños que ve cada día interactuando con adultos que no son sus padres. Esto podría ser un poco irreal para un profesor, pero para el resto de nosotros podría ser una gran experiencia de aprendizaje. Para aprender más acerca de los esfuerzos que realiza nuestra parroquia por crear un ambiente seguro para los niños, por favor comuníquese a su oficina parroquial. Para obtener ayuda, llame a la Oficina de Ministerio de Ayuda al (213) 637-7650, o si desea, llame a la parroquia San Andres al (626) 792-4183, y hable con Carol Clark.
